I can see this one being a calculated rest. Ace on the mound and one of the Padres' former bus boys pitching as opposed to Peavy or Young. Loretta has been hitting really well, so perhaps that helps us out.

"Looking at the flags blowing from right to left, I suddenly wayback in my memory remember the breeze blowing from right to left in a World Series game with the New York Yankees. And Joe Pepitone came up and hit what looked like a sure home run to right field, and Ron Fairly went just about to the bullpen gate and actually came back in a couple of steps and made the catch, only because of that breeze blowing from right to left." —Vin
